'Rabin, the Last Day': An important film In his complex and seemingly disorganized way, director Amos Gitai has crafted a memorial of the Israeli PM's murder and the incitement that preceded it, as well as a stinging indictment of today's politicians. From this perspective, 'Rabin, the Last Day' touches the raw nerves in Israeli society without resorting to clichés.

FLASHBACK: The world was right about Iraq– though Israel got its ‘Clean Break’, June 14, 2014Enter the Bush Doctrine
The four pillars of the president's strategy for winning World War IV.
By [ULTRA-ZIONIST NEOCON JEW] Norman Podhoretz Updated Sept. 2, 2004
(Editor's note: This is excerpted from Mr. Podhoretz's article, "World War IV: How It Started, What It Means, and Why We Have to Win," which appears in the September issue of Commentary.) Voir la version française (et résumée) de Réseau Voltaire.
Podhoretz sur les Troisième et Quatrième guerres mondiales: "For
these reasons, I agree with one of our leading contemporary students of
military strategy, Eliot A. Cohen, who thinks that what is generally
called the "Cold War" (a term, incidentally, coined by Soviet
propagandists) should be given a new name. "The Cold War," Mr. Cohen
writes, was actually "World War III, which reminds us that not all
global conflicts entail the movement of multimillion-man armies, or
conventional front lines on a map." I also agree that the nature of the
conflict in which we are now engaged can only be fully appreciated if we
look upon it as World War IV. To justify giving it this name--rather
than, say, the "war on terrorism"--Mr. Cohen lists "some key features"
that it shares with World War III: that it is, in fact, global; that it
will involve a mixture of violent and nonviolent efforts; that it will
require mobilization of skill, expertise and resources, if not of vast
numbers of soldiers; that it may go on for a long time; and that it has
ideological roots. There is one more feature that World War IV shares
with World War III and that Mr. Cohen does not mention: Both were
declared through the enunciation of a presidential doctrine."

Israel: A lesson in anti-democracy Op-ed:
Justice minister Ayelet Shaked aims to label 'Israel haters' by making
representatives of leftist NGOs wear badges during Knesset discussions.
So what color will she choose for the leftist patch?

President's wife put under guard
Due to possible incitement against President Rivlin on social media, a
personal security detail has been assigned to his wife Nechama. (...)
Hagai Amir, brother of Yitzhak Rabin's assassin Yigal Amir, was arrested
last week on suspicion of incitement against Rivlin. "Rivlin is a
sycophantic politican," Amir said in a Facebook post.

How the Rabbinate creates bastard children
In a recent case, a divorced woman was denied right to remarry because
she has a baby and is subject to halachic rule of nursing. After asking
her intrusive questions, religious judges decide to include her son on a
secret blacklist of 'mamzerim.'

In the Dark on the ‘Dark Side’
The “War on Terror” – now more than 14 years long – has trapped the
U.S. and other nations in the “dark side” of human behavior, a dilemma
that is both moral and practical because the continued use of brutal
methods has only made the crisis worse, as Nicolas J S Davies explains.

How would Orwell feel about today’s college campuses?
As students ‘occupy’ Brandeis University this week, a look at how the
Palestinian-Israeli conflict is playing out at universities in a new

Le complot du lavage de cerveau pro-palestinien
dans les universités? LOL Et ce sont ces gens là qui voient du lavage de
cerveau pro-palestinien partout qui exigent plus de contrôle de la

US Jews still haunted by Pollard affair
Three decades have passed since the Israeli spy's conviction, and
American Jewry is still finding it difficult to recover from the
embarrassing affair. 'Voicing an opinion on the issue could help
anti-Semitic bloggers seeking to question US Jews' motives,' says
pro-Israel activist.

IDF Censors Israeli Media Report Exposing Israeli Double Agent
Yesterday, I broke a major story revealing for the first time that
Boris Krasny, a wealthy Israeli business and political fixer, once was a
KGB agent turned by the Mossad, who became an Israeli double agent. He
is credited with exposing another major spy in Israel, Marcus
Klingberg, who’d worked for the KGB for nearly 30 years, while serving
as a high-level scientific researcher in the field of biological
warfare.

Fascism in Israel? It's Up to You
I'm sick to death of the Zionism of horseshit, of the incitement which
prides itself on hatred and, yes, that 'beautiful face' of fascism. It's
up to every one of us. We can stand up now, or be put down later. Like
dogs. A Plant Named Occupation Has Grown Into a Deep-rooted Tree
When someone says something against the occupation, he is attacked as
if he is the ultimate enemy of all Jews from the time of Moses to Yair
Lapid.

Online store tells customer: 'We don't sell to Arabs'
A youth from Haifa called the website of shop 'Class Deal' after the
shoes he had ordered 4 months ago never arrived; a site representative
swore at and insulted him: 'You dog, you terrorist, if I'd known you
were a stinking Arab I wouldn't have approved your order.'

Adjusting Israel's TV to the Right
Removing Channel 33 from the broadcast lineup of Idan Plus in favor of
Channel 20 symbolizes a worsening of the government’s treatment of its
Arab citizens, who are now totally excluded from its official broadcast
lineup.

Neocons Revenge?
With the end of the original sanctions now in play, Washington’s
neocons and allies are down, but certainly not on the run. What is their
greatest fear? That peace and prosperity will break out? In the
meantime, what will be the impact on Iran – the country that is the
clear winner in all of this

Is Ted Cruz an anti-Semite? No, But…
Is Ted Cruz an anti-Semite? Of course not. Many of his top aides and
supporters are Jews. Is Ted Cruz exploiting hostility toward Jews in his
presidential campaign? It’s complicated. He’s exploiting hostility
toward liberals. And in American political culture, being liberal and
being Jewish are so intertwined that the line between attacking the
former and attacking the latter can blur. Glenn Beck Endorses Ted Cruz For President

Netanyahu: This land is your birthright
In the opening lines of Netanyahu’s speech, Bibi uses a very
interesting turn of phrase when addressing this group of young Jews
(who, according to the Taglit website all range in age from 18-26 years)
from the US saying ‘you are all MEGA for me’. It is unlikely that
Netanyahu chose to use this word by mere happenstance. ‘MEGA’ was the
term that was used within US intelligence circles in describing an
unknown Israeli spy (or spy network) that had been inserted into the
Clinton White House.

Netanyahu's pathetic primaries chicanery
Op-ed: The call for early primaries in the Likud party and the
decision to cancel them 4 days later lead us to an absurd situation. A
sitting prime minister, whose power and influence are hard to even
estimate, is afraid not just of future competitors, but even to compete
against himself.

The only democratic party in Israel
The wall-to-wall condemnation of three Arab MKs for meeting
terrorists' families shows that the Joint List is only one party here
that truly understands what democracy is.

Who's for destroying democracy?
Op-ed: The prime minister's 'big plan' is to weaken the political
system, debilitate the civil servants and gatekeepers and destroy free
press. This is not a delusion thought up in the state of Tel Aviv.

Israel Should Stay Out of the U.S. Election
Republican and Democrat presidents have been both supportive of and
hostile to Israel. What matters is the candidates' commitment to the
bilateral relationship's heart: Israel's military security.

‘Sacrilege’? It's a Pretty Low Bar in Israel These Days
Israel’s escalating culture wars turned surreal in late February, when a
vitriolic battle of words erupted between right and left over this
question: What is the biblical birthplace of the Jewish people? One side
picked Jerusalem. The other side picked Egypt. Both sides were wrong.
But days later the battle is still raging, from the Knesset to the op-ed
pages to Twitter.

The anti-Semitism Problem of pro-Palestinian Progressives
Mira Sucharov’s op-ed advanced a familiar cabal: Jews level charges of
anti-Semitism to stifle all criticism of Israel. On campus and
elsewhere, its effect is to automatically delegitimize most claims of
discrimination or marginalization against Jews.

Israel's Government Reaches a New Moral Low
A state that adopts the legal methods and laws of totalitarian states
begins to look like those countries, even if it calls itself 'the only
democracy in the Middle East.'

Roger Waters defends York U anti-Israel painting 'Freedom of speech is a fundamental right and not for sale to the likes of you,' he tells Paul Bronfman.
In response to demands by businessman Paul Bronfman
that the mural be taken down, Waters wrote Bronfman: “Happily York
University students and faculty members seem to recognize that protest
is ok, and that freedom of speech is a fundamental right and not for
sale to the likes of you."
Bronfman pulled financial support from the university over the mural, which he called “pure hate.” Roger Waters’ Support Of Palestinian Violence As A ‘Moral Duty’
Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters has taken sides
in a controversy at York University in Toronto, where businessman Paul
Bronfman has demanded the removal of a painting that shows a Palestinian
holding stones as he faces a bulldozer.
Waters addressed his letter
to Bronfman, who pulled financial support from the university over the
artwork, which he called “pure hate.”
Waters wrote that Bronfman is
wrong to “use his economic muscle” to try and force removal of
“Palestinian Roots,” which is displayed in the York University Student
Centre, a building on campus that houses the York Federation of
Students.
Waters writes that the Palestinian depicted in the artwork
“has a legal and moral right, under the terms of article 4 of the
Geneva conventions to resist the occupation of his homeland,” adding
that protesting Israel’s policy is not anti-Semitic, and is in fact “a
moral duty.” Mural calling for violence against Israelis still displayed at York University
The
offensive mural prompted Paul Bronfman, a Jewish philanthropist, to
withdraw his considerable financial support to York University. As soon
as Mr. Bronfman pulled the plug on York and called on other donors to
follow suit, Mamdouh Shourki, President of York, issued a statement
confirming that the mural is, indeed, “offensive” to the Jewish members
of York, but explained that the “continued display is the responsibility
of the governing body responsible for the Student Centre which is a
separate and distinct legal entity from the university”. BDS Activist Roger Waters Supports ‘Anti-Semitic’ Mural at Canadian University
In late January, Paul Bronfman, a Jewish backer of the university, demanded
that the image be taken down, calling it “pure hate” and threatening to
pull his donations to the university if it wasn’t removed.
Waters’ letter,
which is addressed directly to Bronfman, accuses the businessman of
using “economic muscle” to forcibly remove the painting, called
“Palestinian roots.”

But
while Harper was ostensibly the man of the hour, the current prime
minister, Justin Trudeau, did not receive such a warm welcome. “The
long, intimate hug that Trudeau shared with U.S. President Barack Obama
on his recent state visit to Washington, D.C., is proof that Trudeau is a danger, like Haman,”
said Ravi Benhihi, president of the recently renamed Friends of the
Hollywood Center for Holocaust Research and Education. “The holiday of
Purim teaches us that we need to be on the lookout for enemies of the
Jewish People at all times, and this latest act strongly suggests that
Trudeau is a character straight out of the Megillah.” He added: “As Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu explained, very indirectly, in his 2015 speech to the U.S. Congress, Barack
Obama is an enemy of Israel, and therefore of the Jewish People. “So
the fact Trudeau pals around with him is prima facie evidence of the
prime minister’s evil nature.” “I hope that logic isn’t too hard to
follow,” he added. Mere minutes after Benhihi’s remarks to reporters,
Jonathan Lessthan, former CEO of the Sons of the Covenant Canada, which
declared bankruptcy the day before the event, went one step further in
smearing Trudeau. “Justin Trudeau is the reincarnation of Haman,
only with much better hair,” Lessthan said in a statement sent out from
his organization’s last remaining computer, a 2003 Compaq Presario
laptop. Other more moderate voices at the dinner took issue with the
characterization of Trudeau as a modern-day Amalekite.
Quelle belle façon de penser. Édifiant, enoblissant! En particulier le Livre d'Esther, qui ne mentionne pas même une seule fois le mot "dieu"... "Livre saint" vous dites?

Purim: Reversing Assimilation
The month that was ostensibly bad for the Jews, turned out to work in
our favor. Just as our ancestors reversed course from assimilation to
enthusiastic faith, so was their misfortune reversed.

Israelis Have Had Enough of Netanyahu, Poll Shows
A Haaretz poll indicates the public is ready for a new political
order, but no Big Bang will occur unless an alternative to Netanyahu
wins over right-wing voters; IDF chief Eisenkot is crowned Israel's most
popular leading figure.

BDS is an existential threat
Op-ed: The Israeli economy is under threat from the BDS movement, with
severe implications if it succeeds. In order to address this threat,
Israel must understand and answer several questions to create a solid
front against this movement.

Rivlin: BDS doesn't believe in Israel's right to exist
Speaking at Ynet and Yedioth Ahronoth's anti-BDS conference, the
president argues there's a difference between criticism and
de-legitimization, stressing that 'we must show BDS claims originate in
hatred towards the State of Israel.'

Satmar Rebbe: Settlers causing terrorism "the
real culprits are the settlers in Israel who agitate the nations of the
world in the country and throughout the world, which causes serious
